Abstract :
We present the radiation characteristics of a linear tapered slot antenna (LTSA) at frequencies of 50 GHz, 77 GHz and 94 GHz. These frequencies have been designated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for several emerging wireless communications. Our studies are compared with Korzeniowski et al. (1983). The patterns are well behaved and symmetric. The measured gain of the LTSAs is about 10 dB.
